Tamarix bonsai how to create a weeping form

10 years ago

I pruned my tamarix last night...the blooms had been spent and it was starting to look bad. Stumbled upon this weeping form bonsai and wish to know how to go about starting one. I found a site...but I still have questions...
Do I want the end of the pruned branch...or the thicker part...cutting the top off? I know I have to wire it down when branches form...that seems simple enough...it's the getting started part I'm boggled with...wanting to start out on the right foot here...

Any advice is appreciated.
